Library of Congress

Some names I've picked up so far this year when looking at authorities files through the library of congress. These are all personal names used by people. There may well be some from a variety of cultures, especially from Romance ones since I'm responsible for Romance literature books...

Middles

[anaphylexis.livejournal.com]

I'm giving lots of thought about choosing middle names because it has always bugged me that I don't have one. When I was younger and my father was overseas he indulged my middle name need by addressing my letters wit h the middle name I picked out for myself, Olivia. I'm sorta over not having a middle name now....but it's been suggested to me that when my SO and I marry in addition to changing my last name I could add a middle. My favorite has pretty much always been Symone (or Simone), but my middle name cannot start with an S. My last name starts with an S (that'd be single or married, as SO's last name starts with an S). I'm certain I won't do this but if I did...What middle names do ya'll think go with Alexis?

Ok I need your opinion to help a friend!

I was talking to my girlfriend today who is expecting a little boy in May. Her husband and her are having a debate on the spelling of a name. She wants to name him Seamus but her husband is afraid that people will mispronounce it so he wants to spell it Shamus. Well to her she sees SHAMUs. What do you personally thing about the spellings? Would you know how to pronounce Seamus?

Revised List

[dustkitty.livejournal.com]

So, we finally sat down and discussed names. We each made a list of names we liked, then went through the other's list with a highlighter and a ballpoint (aka veto-pen), then compiled a list of the ones we agreed we both liked. From there, I've come up with some possible combinations, though we've agreed not to set any names in stone until the baby's born.

So here is my list of potential combos. Vote if you feel like it. Feel free, too, to offer other names you think we might like, other combinations that you think sound good, reviews on what I've got, and what have you.



Note: He didn't highlight Aurora, but he didn't veto it either, and I couldn't bear to remove it from my list; it's my absolute favorite.

He really likes a few names that I'm not sure about. I feel it's only fair to consider them, since I'm asking him to think over a few of my favorites. One in particular, I think might grow on me. What do you think of Owen?

hmm

what do you think of the name Nele? It's German and is pronounced Nay-lah.

I went back a fair few pages and didn't see this posted, but if it has been I will gladly delete it.
I was reading on Wikipedia about Top Model and as I looked down the list, I saw some pretty ridiculous names.
Cycle 6 only just finished in Australia, and there are like 3 or 4 cycles after that I believe so some of these names I had seen on TV and some I hadn't. Anyhow I'll post a random bunch of the names:


Jenascia
Shandi
Camille
Heather
Magdalena
Jennipher
Mercedes
Yoanna
Kahlen
Brita
Lluvy [wtf]
Coryn
Jayla
Bre
Joanie
Wendy
CariDee
Melrose
Jaslene
Gina
Mollie-Sue
Leslie
Furonda
Saleisha
Chantal
Mila
Felicia
